Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of warehousing and logistics technology, specifically to a sorting trolley and a three-layer circular sorting device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of the internet industry, the express delivery and logistics industry is also developing rapidly. In the express delivery and logistics industry, due to the large number of parcels, tight time, and labor shortage, there are often cases of rough handling, missorting, and omissions. As a result, sorting systems and sorting equipment for automatic sorting of parcels have gradually emerged in the market. By using the sorting equipment in these sorting systems to automatically sort parcels, the sorting efficiency of the entire express delivery and logistics industry can be improved.
[0003] The sorting trolleys are installed on a multi-layered circular track of the sorting equipment. Multiple sorting trolleys on the same layer of the circular track are connected sequentially and end to end to form a closed loop. The sorting trolleys are equipped with conveyor belts, and the conveying direction of the conveyor belts is perpendicular to the moving direction of the sorting trolleys. During sorting, packages to be sorted are placed on the conveyor belts. The sorting trolleys move on the track to reach the designated discharge sorting position and then transport the packages to complete the sorting of the packaged items. When the sorting trolleys transport smaller packages, the packages are completely inside the sorting trolleys, and the movement of the sorting trolleys on the circular track can prevent the packages from falling out. However, when transporting larger packages, especially at the bends of the circular track, larger packages are easily thrown out from inside the sorting trolleys, which can damage the packages or even the equipment, thereby reducing the safety of the sorting equipment.
[0004] Therefore, it is of great importance to design a sorting cart and a three-layer circular sorting device to solve the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example:
[0025] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0026] A sorting trolley includes a frame 1, a conveying assembly 2 installed on the inner side of the frame 1, positioning mechanisms 3 fixedly installed on both the left and right sides inside the frame 1, a connecting frame 4 fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame 1, a connector 5 fixedly installed at the left end of the connecting frame 4, and a movable frame 6 fixedly installed at the right end of the connecting frame 4.
[0027] First, in this embodiment, the specific structure of the positioning mechanism 3 is as follows:
[0028] The positioning mechanism 3 includes slide rods 301 fixedly installed on the left and right sides inside the frame 1. Slide sleeves 302 are slidably connected to both ends of the slide rods 301. Springs 303 are sleeved on the outer side of the slide rods 301 and on the opposite side of the two sets of slide sleeves 302. Transmission rods 304 are rotatably connected to the outer side of the two sets of transmission rods 302. Connecting blocks 305 are rotatably connected between the two sets of transmission rods 304. Positioning plates 306 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting blocks 305. When conveying larger packages, after the package enters the inner side of the frame 1, the springs 303 continuously push the slide sleeves 302. Under the transmission of the slide rods 301, the positioning plates 306 are pushed against the two sides of the package, thereby clamping and positioning the two sides of the package. At the same time, the positioning plates 306 can move to a certain extent without excessively squeezing the package, ensuring the positioning effect of the package. After reaching the designated discharge and sorting position, the package can be output normally.
[0029] Furthermore, both ends of the slide rod 301 are fixedly connected to the frame 1 via mounting bases 307. A fixing sleeve 308 is fixedly connected to the middle of the slide rod 301. A rubber buffer pad 309 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixing sleeve 308 near the connecting block 305. Multiple sets of rollers 310 are rotatably connected inside the positioning plate 306. The mounting base 307 facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the slide rod 301. When the positioning plate 306 clamps and positions the package, the rubber buffer pad 309 on the outside of the fixing sleeve 308 can prevent the connecting block 305 from being compressed and causing damage to the slide rod 301. When the package is guided into the frame 1 for conveying, the multiple sets of rollers 310 inside the positioning plate 306 can assist the package in being guided into the inside of the frame 1, preventing the outer side of the package from being directly rubbed and damaged by the positioning plate 306.
[0030] Then, guide wing plates 101 are fixedly connected to the front ends of both sides of the frame 1, and the two sets of guide wing plates 101 are symmetrically distributed on the front ends of the left and right sides of the frame 1. When the package is introduced into the frame 1, it is guided by the guide wing plates 101 to facilitate the package entering.
[0031] Furthermore, the conveying assembly 2 includes a driven roller 201 movably mounted inside the front end of the frame 1, and an electric roller 202 rotatably connected to the rear end inside the frame 1. A conveyor belt 203 is sleeved on the outer side of the driven roller 201 and the electric roller 202. Multiple sets of anti-slip ridges 204 are evenly spaced on the outer side of the conveyor belt 203. When conveying packages, the driven roller 201 is started to rotate. With the assistance of the electric roller 202, the packages are conveyed through the conveyor belt 203. At the same time, the anti-slip ridges 204 on the outer side of the conveyor belt 203 can improve the friction between the conveyor belt and the packages, which can not only stably convey packages, but also prevent packages from being thrown out at turns during conveying.
[0032] The movable frame 6 has a connecting hole 501 at a position corresponding to the connector 5. A connecting bolt 502 is fixedly installed inside the connecting hole 501, and the connector 5 is rotatably connected to the connecting bolt 502. When multiple sets of frames 1 are installed on the circular track, the connector 5 is inserted into the interior of the movable frame 6 and aligns with the connecting hole 501. Then, the connecting bolt 502 is passed through the connecting hole 501 and the interior of the connector 5, thereby connecting the connector 5 and the movable frame 6, so that multiple sets of frames 1 can move together on the circular track.
[0033] Secondly, both the front and rear ends of the mobile frame 6 are rotatably connected to the moving wheels 601. The bottom of the mobile frame 6 and the inner side of the two sets of moving wheels 601 are rotatably connected to the contact wheels 602. The mobile frame 6 moves on the circular track by the moving wheels 601, while the contact wheels 602 are in contact with the inner side of the circular track to ensure the stable movement of the frame 1.
[0034] This utility model also provides a three-layer ring sorting device, including a sorting trolley.
[0035] In this embodiment, the specific implementation scenario is as follows: When multiple sets of frames 1 are installed on a circular track, the connector 5 and the moving frame 6 are connected so that multiple sets of frames 1 can move together on the circular track. When conveying larger packages, the driven roller 201 is started to rotate. With the assistance of the electric roller 202, the package is conveyed by the conveyor belt 203. The guide wing plate 101 guides the package to facilitate its entry. After the package enters the inner side of the frame 1, the spring 303 continuously pushes the sliding sleeve 302. Under the transmission of the sliding rod 301, the positioning plate 306 is pushed against the two sides of the package, thereby clamping and positioning the two sides of the package. At the same time, the positioning plate 306 can move to a certain extent without excessively squeezing the package, ensuring the positioning effect of the package. After reaching the designated discharge and sorting position, the package can be output normally. The whole operation process is simple and convenient. This utility model, through its design, can clamp and position the two sides of larger packages, ensuring the positioning effect of the package. After reaching the designated discharge and sorting position, the package can be output normally, thereby ensuring the safety of the sorting equipment.
[0036] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
